- We've committed $1 million to help bridge small businesses in #Washtenaw County to newly-announced state & federal funding, and protect their workers. 1 page form, grants in days, not weeks: washtenawsbf.com Tell your favorite local business in #AnnArbor #Ypsi ...
- Worked 3 jobs as a line cook, resident advisor, and security admin to pay my way (and my sister’s) through 5 years of @UMich undergrad, after my dad died freshman year. We see you @geo3550! #Solidarity
We worked 2-3 jobs as undergrads so that we could afford to attend @umich, met while working at a restaurant. My parents took turns for cmmty college, then @UM_Dearborn. Mom graduated right before I finished HS. Students with kids, no childcare, and side jobs, we hear you.

- Dan Kaminsky’s Loveletter to HackingReplying to @dakamiThis thread is absolutely a love letter to everything I’ve treasured, being an Infosec nerd.

- 👏 Duo never had noncompetes, which I felt were immoral and offensive (though standard in Michigan). Culture, opportunity, & rewards retained our folks, not some lousy contract.1. Today @FTC issued a final rule banning noncompetes for workers across the country. The rule will ensure that Americans have the freedom to pursue a new job, start a new business, or bring a new idea to market. ftc.gov/legal-library/…
- Among the meta-problems infosec has to get over 1st: 1. Blaming users 2. Learned helplessness 3. Zero-risk thinkingAmong the problems infosec has no clue how to solve: 1. phishing 2. SQL injection 3. authentication
- Good choice :-)
We are pleased to announce Rob Joyce as our next @NSACyber Director and are excited about the expertise he brings to continue the #cybersecurity mission! - Replying to @dhelderIt does not have to be like this. Duo is 40% women and underrepresented minorities. We can and have to do better.
